No....I don't think we can leave it at that.  I don't think we simply 
disagree....I think we just don't fully understand each other's point of 
view.  At least I didn't get the connection you were trying to make.  If 
I fully understood it, then perhaps I could disagree with you more 
intelligently  .  As it is...I'm a bit confused
I thought Chuck was saying that children shouldn't be allowed to write 
until they have some grasp of the fundamentals.  He likened it to 
learning a sport...getting some instruction before proceeding to play 
the game.  However, writing in a pre-school or kindergarten classroom a 
is _very_ different thing and although the analogy is interesting, it 
doesn't fit here.  At least it doesn't fit for me.
